Toy Story 3

i found myself staring at a trashbag during one of the earlier scenes thinking, "now that's a trashbag"

haha same, especially when they're stretching it in the way it becomes semi translucent.

That trashbag was more awe-inspiring than the entire six hours or whatever of Avatar.

dear socketlevel - it lasts for about a month, once a year, like allergies.  but aside from the first couple of days, it's pretty light.  I just walk around with a cane for a month.

I saw it in 3d cause it was the only way to catch it in english. There is nothing 3d about it but I was pleasantly surprised to see that it really didn't lose a lot of the color because of it, as was the case with Alice in Wonderland.

Damn, the movie was outstanding, but that short beforehand is what I was really hung up on.  Amazing sound design and overall, just a solid, solid short that didn't just fall into the expected Pixar look and feel.

Can I tell you that I get a kick out of those Priority Mail/Toy Story commercials? Having the Cliff Clavin Pig  as the mail man, priceless.


Can I also tell you that I cried?    Toy Story remains my fav Pixar. Adding to the 'quotes we say too much from the movies' topic: I have been telling people, "There's a snake in my boot!" since 1995 and for some reason it ALWAYS gets a laugh.

Isn't that line also a reference to Oregon Trail?  It feels like that happened now and then when you weren't running out of supplies and someone wasn't poisoning the water hole.

This was a mostly funny and entertaining movie (the first daycare sequence was great, and so was the tortilla thing) but it doesn't live up to Toy Story 2, and it feels sort of redundant.

Loved the short at the beginning.

[Stefen]

I cried. I cried like a big dumb piece of shit.

I actually think it's the best out of the three. I approached this as a cash in and didn't really have high expectations. Oh, it's just the toys in another adventure, but it was so much more. As with most everything Pixar does it transcended the simple animated film genre. It starts out kind of basic but really gets going once the toys get to the daycare. After that it doesn't let up.

The funniest part was easily Ken modeling for Barbie. Also, I think my favorite character is the pig. His sarcasm kills me. I like Mr. Potato Head, too. I like all the abrasive characters.

That ending tho, wow, I teared up big time. Felt like an idiot.

This proves (once again) that sequels can be so much more than the original. My heart melted and I was filled with unabashed joy. I didn't have high expectations like I do with most films but this really blew me out of the water.
